Happy Slip on eBay

An autographed photo of Filipina YouTube commedienne “Happy Slip” Christine is up for auction on eBay. Included in the package is a stapler YouTube star Kevin Nalts “stole” from Christine. Proceeds will go to Canine Lifeline, a charity for lost dogs. Current bid: $840.02.

In a recent interview, Christine mentions doing less and less of her day job thanks to her Happy Slip business. If the bids on this auction are any indication, Christine’s in the money once YouTube starts sharing revenue. Her success after that will catalyze the creation of a cottage industry in her homeland — where TV is dying, YouTube is huge, and Google sends checks.
